const envVariables = [userIdEnvVariableName];
const verifyFn: VerifyFunction = (verifyEnvVariables, done) => {
const id = verifyEnvVariables[userIdEnvVariableName];
return !id ? done(null) : done(null, { id });
};
const createStrategy = (): Strategy => new EnvAuthStrategy({ envVariables }, verifyFn);Than i your Express Routes:
app.get('/auth/env-auth', authenticate('env-auth', { session: false }), (req, res) => {
